new study published in the journal Science has astounded biologists: global warming is not harming biodiversity, but instead is increasing the range and diversity of species in various ecosystems.

Environmentalists have long warned that global warming could lead to mass extinctions as fragile ecosystems around the world are made unlivable as temperatures increase. But a team of biologists from the United States, United Kingdom and Japan found that global warming has not led to a decrease in biodiversity. Instead, biodiversity has increased in many areas on land and in the ocean.

POLL: Is Common Core indoctrination or education?

“Although the rate of species extinction has increased markedly as a result of human activity across the biosphere, conservation has focused on endangered species rather than on shifts in assemblages,” reads the editor’s abstract of the report.

The study says “species turnover” was “above expected but do not find evidence of systematic biodiversity loss.” The editor’s abstract adds that the result “could be caused by homogenization of species assemblages by invasive species, shifting distributions induced by climate change, and asynchronous change across the planet.”

Researchers reviewed 100 long-term species monitoring studies from around the world and found increasing biodiversity in 59 out of 100 studies and decreasing biodiversity in 41 studies. The rate of change in biodiversity was modest in all of the studies, biologists said.

  • Real science has proven that there has been no global warming since 1994, in fact it has been cooling. In the decade prior to 1994, temperature increased less than 0.5 degrees which is hard to confirm on a global basis. This article makes no sense and is not based on confirmed science. Always consider the source of information.

  • Frank...I agree with you...1st it was global cooling, then global warming, then climate change and now chaos.....that is what the left has brought..CHAOS...I even heard climate "diversity" today at a Public Lands Rally...for states to take back the stolen federal lands and minerals....honestly I cannot keep up with all the lies.....

  • THese people get these grants...  from people who give them the results they want.   All these Scientist have to do is arrange  material to fit what the Global warming.. Climate change.. what ever they call themselves want.   Good old Al Gore cleared about $40 Million  being the "leader" of this agenda.

  • It is exactly so !!  ...but we laugh last !!

    ...cause we know how it ends :)

  • Understanding the hard LEFT and their agenda will leave you with no surprises. 

    Øßama¢are is not about providing healthcare to those who did not have it. It's about their revolution of destruction. It's stealing our nation away right from under our noses. Bit by bit. It's part of the transfer of wealth.
    Climate Change is not about saving the planet. It's about nationalizing energy and rationing it.It's all about controlling you and I.
    Recognizing GAY marriage isn't about tolerance, it's about tearing up America's moral compass. Those who buck the NEW system lose professional franchises, and their reputations. They want to control everything. AND we're allowing them to do so. 
    Whipping out the race card isn't about insuring equality. It's about dividing the population.
    Education is no longer teaching. It's about indoctrinating our kids. 

    We're living in a post- constitutional era. Laws are what the elitists desire for that week. Our rights, like freedom of speech and our private property rights are slowly being taken away from us. It's most unfortunate that a good portion of the population simply doesn't realize it. Those are the citizen imbeciles that don't deserve LIBERTY!

    They just don't!

  • Frank... It's a moving target. 1st it was global cooling. Then global warming.. and after that was junked.. it's now climate change. Which the sane know as natural occurring weather cycles.

    The crime is these 'fraudsters' soliciting to fund such... and the government handing out Our money, which these hustlers use to perpetuate it. WE cal that CCE.

    I once got into a deductive 'public' debate with one of these 'green' types. After hours... the bottom line ???  We 'humans' were a virus to the Earth... and should be eradicated from it. ...and my final question got a....and 'They' should be left to protect it. WTF ??

    Gave me a fine understanding of where their heads are. A place where 2+2 ain't 4.

  • If the Republican party actually cared, they would amass a sizable group of real scientists that KNOW the truth and are not bound to the corrupt government grants to survive. Besides the fact that it would take hundreds of nuclear bombs to even raise the temperature one single degree, the devious reasons the left uses (disguised as climate change) should be exposed to the general public. We need to bust up that cult with genuine FACTS!

    The debate IS NOT OVER, BARRY!!!

  • Species die off and new ones spring up, it's nature and Gods plan, live with it...

  • Frankmusic - IMHO, if they want to push Climate Chaos, they must be crazier than we think they are. Where in a chaotic system do they insert AGW? Bring it on. BTW, check my Science Theory of Functional Relativity posted on Principia Scientific International's site:
